Assessment Tools and Analysis Services

NutritionQuest is a leader in the field of diet and physical activity assessment. We are the official source of the Block Food Frequency Questionnaire and other dietary and physical activity questionnaires developed under the guidance of Dr. Gladys Block. Block Assessment Tools are designed and tested for usability, and have a long history of validation in a variety of demographic subpopulations. Our questionnaires have been used in hundreds of research studies.

Paper Format

Purchase questionnaires and screeners in paper format. Administer them to your study subjects and return completed forms to NutritionQuest for processing. We'll scan them, calculate nutrient or physical activity estimates, and return the data to you in an electronic file suitable for statistical analysis. Individual reports for study subjects are also available.

Electronic Format

All Block assessment tools are also available in an electronic format delivered via Data-on-Demand, which provides an online structure for integrated data collection, nutrient and physical activity analysis, and data management. The electronic questionnaires may be completed online for computer-assisted self-interviewing (CASI), and either online or offline for computer-assisted personal interviewing (CAPI).
